- device 101 will utilize WLAN 206 when within the coverage area of WLAN 206, and will utilize WAN 207 when outside of the coverage area of WLAN 206.
- Device 101 will also utilize both WLAN 206 and WAN 207 for soft handoff purposes when both systems are available for communication.
- device 101 When in coverage of WLAN 206, device 101 will access WLAN 206 through any number of access points 104 (only one shown in FIG. 2). As discussed, the system shown in FIG.
- Uplink communication signals 202 that are received via access point 104 may be routed to SDU 214 via one of several paths.
- access point 104 may simply act as a wireless repeater by wirelessly re-broadcasting uplink communication signal 202 (via signal 212) to base station 107.
- Access point 104 may pass data received via uplink communication signal 202 through enterprise internet 208 to SDU 214 via internet 211.
- circuit-switched data may be directed towards SDU 214 by converting uplink communication signal 202 to circuit-switched data and passing the data through Private Branch Exchange (PBX) 209 to Public-Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) 210 and eventually to SDU 214 through MSC 213.
- PBX Private Branch Exchange
- PSTN Public-Switched Telephone Network
- device 101 may take advantage of soft handoff by simultaneously receiving downlink communication signals via base station 107 and access point 104. During such operation data exits SDU 214 and is directed towards base station 107, and eventually ends up at device 101 via downlink signal 204. Data may reach access point 104 via several signal paths. A first signal path simply exists through base station 107 to access point 104 via communication signal 212.
- SDU may direct data to MSC 213 to PBX 209 through PSTN 210.
- data passing through WLAN 206 may be substantially delayed when compared to data that is transmitted/received through WAN 207. If the delay is too great, device 101 will be unable to use both signals for performing soft handoff.
- time-delay circuitry is utilized to delay all transmissions that are not directed through WLAN 206. By delaying transmissions not directed through WLAN 206, the communication signals entering SDU 214 can be appropriately time-aligned. This is illustrated in FIG. 3. Referring to FIG.
- path 106 comprises base station 107/device 101 link, and may comprise either uplink communication signal 203 or downlink communication signal 204.
- path 103 comprises device 101/WLAN 206 link, and may comprise either uplink communication signal 202 or downlink communication signal 205.
- path 105 comprises the link between WLAN 206 and WAN 207.
- path 105 may utilize either communication signal 212, internet 211, or PSTN 210.
- N is the processing time required to translate data received on path 103 to data transmitted on path 105 and vice versa. Data transmitted over path 103 and 105 will require a longer time (N) to reach its destination when compared to data transmitted over path 106.
- N is a deterministic fixed delay in each direction.
- the fixed delay could be hard coded within the WLAN 206 and communicated back to the device 101 via messaging.
- the fixed delay is easily measured by sending known patterns and taking timing measurements.
- the WLAN supplier can then have this programmed into the WLAN device.
- WLAN 206 communicates to both WAN 207 and device 101 the delay (N). Both device 101 and WAN 207 would delay their transmissions over path 106 by N. Thus, if data is available at time X for transmission over path 106, device 101 and WAN 207 will have to delay the transition over path 106 until time X+N.
- FIG. 4 is a more-detailed block diagram of various elements of FIG. 2 during data transmissions from the base station and the access point.
- data is received at SDU 214 and is split into a plurality of redundant data streams by splitter 411.
- a redundant data stream is either delayed or not (via circuitry 401) based on whether or not the data is to be routed through WLAN 206.
- delay circuitry 401 receives a redundant data stream and delays the data stream for a predetermined amount of time.
- delay circuitry 401 comprises a first-in-first-out buffer having an ability to vary the delay amount.
- delay circuitry 401 may comprise other forms of delay means.
- the redundant data stream is delayed an amount of time equal to the processing time required to translate, or convert the data received on path 103 to the data transmitted on path 105 and vice versa.
- Both non-delayed redundant data and delayed redundant data exit SDU 214 where they are transmitted to a WLAN and a WAN, respectively.
- Non-delayed, and delayed redundant data streams enter access point 104 and base station 107, respectively.
- path 105 may comprise one of many paths to access point 104.
- Delayed redundant data enters base station transmit circuitry 403 where it is transmitted to first receive circuitry 407 via over-the-air signal path 106.
- signal path 106 utilizes a first communication system protocol.
- non-delayed data enters access point 104 where it is transmitted to second received circuitry 405 utilizing a second communication system protocol.
- device 101 outputs them to combine circuitry 409 where the streams are properly combined.
- soft handoff may be precluded.
- FIG. 4 illustrates delay circuitry 401 existing within SDU 214
- delay circuitry may also exist within base station 107 or transmit circuitry 403, as long as downlink signal 106 to device 101 is appropriately delayed.
- FIG. 5 is a more-detailed block diagram of various elements of FIG. 2 during data transmission from the mobile device of FIG. 2. As shown, data enters splitter 511 where it is split into a plurality of redundant data streams. Redundant data streams are passed to both delay circuitry 509 and first transmit circuitry 405.
- delay circuitry 509 serves to delay the data stream by an amount of time equal to the processing time required to translate data received on path 103 to data transmitted on path 105 and vice versa.
- the delayed data is then output to transmit circuitry 407.
- the delayed data and the non-delayed data streams are transmitted to base station receive circuitry 503 and access point 104, respectively.
- the transmission to the delayed and non-delayed data streams are transmitted utilizing differing communication system protocols.
- Eventually the delayed data and non-delayed data reach SDU combine circuitry 501.
- FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing operation of the wide-area network of FIG. 2 during downlink transmission.

- WAN 207 determines an amount of time necessary to translate path 103 to path 105 an d vice versa.
- data is transmitted through base station 107 is delayed by the amount of time determined at step 605.
- the delayed data is transmitted via a first soft handoff leg utilizing a first communication system protocol, while non-delayed data is transmitted via a second soft-handoff leg utilizing a second communication system protocol.
- FIG. 7 is a flow chart showing operation of the mobile device of FIG. 2 during uplink transmission.
- the logic flow begins at step 701 where a data stream is received by splitter 511.
- the data stream is split into a plurality of redundant data streams.
- a first redundant data stream is delayed by a predetermined amount of time. The amount of time is predetermined, and is based on an amount of time necessary for WLAN 206 to convert and transmit the data received from uplink communication signal 202.
